The Seijō University ( Japanese 成 城 大学 , Seijō daigaku , Eng. Seijo University ) is a private university in Japan . It is located in the Setagaya district of Tokyo , near the Seijogakuen-mae train station .
history
The school group Seijō-Gakuen ( 成 城 学園 ), of which the university is part, was founded in 1917 by Masatarō Yanagisawa ( 澤 柳 政 太郎 , 1865-1927) as a Seijō elementary school. The name Seijō came from a group of words in the Chinese Book of Songs : "哲夫成 城 " ( Eng. Roughly : "The wise men form the city / state "). In 1922, the Second Seijō Middle School was founded, and in 1925 it moved to what is now the Seijō campus.
In 1926, the Second Seijō Middle School developed into the seven-year Seijō High School ( 成 城 高等学校 , Seijō kōtō gakkō . Age: 12-19). The high school, like the Seikei and Musashi high schools, served the sons of the wealthier citizens of Tokyo as a preparatory course for the Imperial Universities .
After the Pacific War , it became the Seijō-Gakuen Middle School (1947; three-year school), Seijō-Gakuen High School (1948; three years) and Seijō University (1950; four years).
